2018 JUN 29 -- Day 79

Woo! Down, down, down goes the weight. This is a thing that is currently happening in my life. And this is after I basically pigged-out for the past two days. I probably didn't pig-out, but I really feel like I ate a lot. The point, though, is that I lost 1.4 lbs. That's quite a bit. I'm over the moon! I guess I am a bit like the cow in the nursery rhyme.

Starting weight: 401 lbs
Current weight: 354.2 lbs 
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 325 lbs

I made myself the most delicious omelet. I sauteed some onions in butter, and then I added black olives and broccoli into that. I whisked four eggs and poured that over the olives, broccoli and onions. Then when the eggs cooked through, I spread out four Havarti cheese slices over the whole thing, and then folded in half onto a plate like a proper omelette. I topped it with one more slice of Havarti.

I ate that whole thing and some bullet proof coffee. It was so good! Later on, I ate one more meal of two dill pickles, four hard-boiled eggs, and an entire eight-ounce block of cream cheese spread and wrapped into some roasted seaweed sheets. And today, I am down by 1.4 lbs over yesterday! This is insanity! This is just further proof that keto works, and the only time you would gain considerable weight is if you are knocked out of ketosis.

I can't believe how unhealthy these meals sound to my brainwashed mind. We have all been taught from a very early age that fat is bad, carbohydrates are good, and eating less and moving more is the key to weight loss. It simply isn't true. I think I'm a little bit mad at the lies we have all been told and taught as absolute truths!

I am reading Dr. Fung's book, The Obesity Code. My eyes are wide open now. I didn't know what I didn't know. It's amazing! I'm grateful that I know this now, but I'm sad that I spent so many years of my life being obese when I didn't have to be. I spent so long fighting this problem, and it's all because of faulty information handed down by politicians. And the whole world continues to place the blame in the wrong place; the whole world blames the victims and makes the victims feel as if we are at fault for something out of our control!

I'm mad at the food pyramid. The food pyramid is a lie graph:

2018 AUG 2 -- Day 113

My weight is down to 340.6 lbs again today, but that's what it has been every other day for the past 5 days. This is not encouraging. I like that it's gone down instead of up, but it's still not as far down as I'd hoped. I'm not feeling great about my progress at the moment. I'm beginning to doubt I can succeed with my ultimate weight loss goal at all. Am I losing inches, maybe? I don't know. I don't feel like I have, but I'm too afraid to measure myself. What if I haven't lost inches or if I have gained inches? I would be so discouraged! Starting weight:  401 lbs Current weight:  340.6  lbs   ⇩ Long-term Goal:  145 lbs Short-term Goal:  325 lbs My blood glucose readings were in the 120s when I first started measuring, but now they are staying in the 150 to 160 range. Every now and then they get into the 190s or 200s. That's fairly frightening. Why is my blood glucose so high? I read that there is possibly glucose in  my fat cells th...

2018 JUL 28 -- Day 108

I have lost a little bit of weight from yesterday to today, but I'm still not too happy. I am about three pounds heavier than where I should be right now. I know it's because food inevitably causes weight gain, and breaking my fast two days a week will invariably make my weight bounce back a bit. While I have to accept it, I don't have to like it. Starting weight:  401 lbs Current weight:  339  lbs   ⇩ Long-term Goal:  145 lbs Short-term Goal:  325 lbs I was feeling a bit yuck from a combination of my fight with the porcelain fairy and the stress I've been under. I decided that eating would be a good idea today, so I had a salad with a nice, fat-infused Italian dressing I had made and some feta cheese and a few cherry tomatoes. It was really tasty. I also ate about an ounce or two of pork rinds. You'd be surprised at how many rinds are in a single ounce. They are a bit difficult to weight, though. I had quite a handful of them. Likely, it was two h...

2018 JUL 30 -- Day 110

I gained 3 lbs. I hate that I gained 3 lbs. I made the decision to change my eating regime and start eating when I feel hungry. I ate with my husband when we got home from work yesterday. We had taco salads. It was good, but I am now 3 lbs heavier than I was yesterday. This doesn't make me feel good. Starting weight:  415 lbs Current weight:  341  lbs  ⇧   Long-term Goal:  145 lbs Short-term Goal:  325 lbs I had about the same amount of actual salad that he had, but while he had an Italian Romaine blend of lettuce, I had a spring mix with baby spinach. I also drank almost my entire 7-cup bottle of water -- maybe 5 cups of it. I know that fiber retains water, so I'm hoping that when I eliminate the salad as waste, I will lose this 3 lbs and then some. We shall see and only time will tell. I feel good, though. I feel better than I have in several days. That's telling. Have I been severely dehydrated, maybe? I don't know. Have I been missing out ...
